Abstract
To provide a substrate processing method and a substrate processing device that are effective in suppressing pattern collapse of uneven patterns.SOLUTION: The substrate processing method includes replacing a liquid in a recess of a substrate on which an uneven surface pattern is formed with a reinforcement material in a solid state and applying a low molecular weight processing to the substrate to reduce the number of bonds between molecules in the reinforcement material while maintaining the reinforcement material in a solid state.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8
